Awesomely Fantastic Mango Salsa

5 Roma Tomatoes
1 white onion
1/2 green bell pepper
1 cup distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup cilantro or to taste (i like it hot, obviously)
a dash of garlic
squeeze of half a lime

Let the chopped onion and chopped 1/2 bell pepper sit overnight in the vinegar. Next  day, chop tomatoes, add the onion bell pepper, cilantro, garlic, and lime into a bowl and there it is. Chill in the fridge.

Stop here if you just want boring old pico de gallo.

Now for EXCITEMENT!!!!

1 Mango
2 Kiwi ( unless you have a latex allergy)
1 papaya
1/2 can crushed pineapple

Cut each up in small pieces and soak in vinegar for about 6 hours in the fridge. To make this easier on yourself in the future you could just add the fruit to the onion and bell pepper six hours before you plan on preparing the pico de gallo...but then, it wouldn;t be as EXCITING!!!!!!

Add the fruit after you've got everything sorted out in your head. It will be fine. I promise. The main thing to remember with salsa is to balance the cilantro, garlic, tomato, and lime.... also the vinegar. Just be careful and it will  be very exciting. Good luck and be well. ; )
